Wolf ammo

[alwayspackin]

Is it safe to reload Wolf ammo since they are steel case? Will they hurt the carbide dies?

No. Not relaodable. Not worth the time anyway.

There are a few threads on Enos about it. Some guys say you can load it. I think I would use a steel die instead of carbide, just lube the cases good. I have sized a few Wolf cases without any problem. The steel doesn't stretch like the brass does. When I get a hundred or so cases I'm gonna try it and see how it goes.

If you do attempt it, some Wolf uses Berdan primers.

I thought all wolf used berdan primers. I just looked it up and you're right, some of it is boxer primed.

hmmmm...

It won't work and you will be wasting your time. Also...the bullets are not standard .308. The cases are also are lacquer coated and the stuff will rub off on the die...same with the paint. That is one of the many advantages of brass.

Theoretically you can reload them, but it simply isn't worth the trouble.

Also...they don't really make carbide dies for cartridges other than straight walled ones.
